Orchards coffee shop robbed at gunpoint

A man got away Tuesday evening after robbing the Brewed Awakenings coffee shop in Orchards at gunpoint.

Sheriff’s deputies were called to the coffee shop, at 6500 N.E. 117th Ave., shortly before 7 p.m., after an employee reported the shop had been robbed at gunpoint, according to the Clark County Sheriff’s Office.

The sheriff’s office said the man entered the business right as it was closing. He leveled a dark-colored revolver at the employee and demanded cash from the register. The employee handed it over, then the man left.

No one was hurt, the sheriff’s office said. A police dog team responded to try tracking the manbut was unsuccessful.

The sheriff’s office described the suspect as white, in his late 30s to early 40s, about 5 feet 8 inches to 5 feet 10 inches tall with a heavy build and long beard. He wore a yellow coat with a hood, in the style of what one might wear for skiing or snowboarding, and black gloves.
